Alliesthesia, Thermal comfort, Thermal perception, Sensory stimuli, Open spacesAbstract
Alliesthesia is a psychological and physiological phenomenon that presents the relationship between the internal state of an organism and the sensation of pleasure or displeasure perceived from the stimuli received. This term was developed in the 1970s in order to describe how the perception of sensory stimuli varies the state of the individual. Since 2010, the relationship between this topic and thermal comfort has been analyzed. The objective of this study is the bibliometric analysis of the terms “aliesthesia” and “thermal comfort” in the Scopus database. The study presents the reality of this topic at the international level and demonstrates the knowledge gap on the national scene. The method used is based on data collected in the selected scientific base, with the study showing the sample obtained, the studies developed over time, the years of publication, the main authors, the areas in which the most research is carried out on this theme, the countries that most carry out this theme, in addition to presenting the related subjects and the keywords used. The study carried out demonstrates that the development of this topic in Brazil is still incipient.
